X12 EDI Connector 2.9 Examples - Mule 4

Use this example to view the use case for Business-to-Business (B2B) EDI integration leveraging Anypoint X12 Connector. This example:

  • Transforms XML messages into outbound EDI X12 850 purchase order transactions

An HTTPS Listener source receives the enterprise purchase order XML messages from a backend system. DataWeave and X12 Writes translate the XML message into an X12 v4010 850 purchase order EDI message.

  • Transforms Inbound EDI X12 850 purchase orders into JSON

An HTTP Listener source receives the raw EDI X12 850 purchase order message. X12 Read and DataWeave components pare and translate the EDI data into the JSON format.

  • Generates a Functional Acknowledgment (997)
